Luminescence properties of engineered nitrogen vacancy centers in a close surface proximity Universiteit Hasselt
Fluorescent cellular biomarkers play an essential role in biology and medicine for in vitro and in vivo imaging in living cells. Recently, we have demonstrated that photoluminescence (PL) can be driven chemically by changing the occupation of NV(-) and NV(0) states by H- or O-termination. In the presented work we study, how the luminescence of NV centers at controlled depth from the surface changes upon different surface treatment. We compare NV ...
